I've just joined the forum and live in Michigan. My mother in law taught me to knit about 4 years ago and I absolutely love it. My mother in law is 82 years old and started knitting when she was ten years old. She is such an amazing teacher and is so patient. Knitting is so fascinating to me. I've knit several sweaters for my self and my husband and am currently working on the enchanted forest cardigan. When I'm not knitting or working you'll find me either riding one of our four horses, or playing with or walking our three Rottweilers. I've also got two miniature donkeys and three barn cats. I am excited to find this forum, I'm sure it a wealth of knowledge.

Hi bluebirdkay. Welcome from Australia. We are glad you found us too. This is a great forum where you will find lots of very friendly knitters who also love knitting and sharing their experiences and knowledge.Looking forward to hearing from you often.

Hi there, BLuebirdkay, from Northern California. How wonderful for you to have such an experienced teacher; I imagine it must be a pleasure for her to pass that knowledge along to you. I hope you enjoy the forum!
